Mrs. Jacqueline Zaborski, chief librarian. tells about some of the away -from -it -all vacation spots described by li- brary books. She suggests a look at Juneau, Alaska for Palm Beachers who would like to find a cool spot in July. Juneau's tempera- ture, she reports, seldom rises above 03 degrees in July and it sometimes drops to 48 degrees. A vacationer isn't likely to run into heavy crowds in Alaska. either, The population of about 300.060 is only about four -tenths of a person a square rnile. For mountain peak buffs, Mt. McKinley, the tallest peak on the North American continent is also in. Alaska Travelers wandering around the northern areas of the continent can also drop in at Nova Scotia in Canada and see the highest tides in the world. For men who want to get away from the everyday life, Mrs. Zaborski mentions Mt. Athos. a free republic governed by Greece, on the Chalcidice peninsula, It's populated only by 2,687 Greek Orthodox monks — and no women are permitted there. A Hight to the southeast coast of Africa off the Indian Ocean will take a vacationer to Mauritius, she says. It's a 791- mile square island that's one of the newest of (heindependent African republics. There, travelers can meet a newly indepen- dent people who are emerging into an. industrial world. And then. she says, there's Mexico. Many travelers would like to see that dramatic, colorful land but want to avoid the tourist cliches of Acapulco and Mexico City. In the southeast cif Mexico there's the Yucatan peninsula, now the Mexican state of Yucatan. It's off the Gulf of Mexico and is not too long a flight f TOM Miami. Visitors will learn, if they want to, that only the most expensive and North Americanized hotels provide really good beds— most V' ucatecans sleep in hammocks. A trip to a village markets will show a colorful display of bright handwoven hammocks. They're made by the Yucatecan fishing folk who weave hammocks from the same hemp they use for their fishing nets The hand -carved fishing boats, painted in brilliant shade& are similar to those portrayed on the walls of Mayan ruins more than 2.000 years ago. 4-0 Bj 0 trr R4eidirf-nonc 37f)ii/71 Program t NPB Library Sugumer is traditionally a lazy Einit for -youngsters.

He's proud of his gun and holster. "Can 1 let everybody else wear it?" he asks. "No, no, not today, Timmy" Mrs, Volk says, quickly turning the subject to animals. -Six big cows standing in the barn," the record blares. -Moo, m0000. m000," answer the little angels. "Five little pigs squishing in the. mud," "Oink, oink, oink. - "Four little chicks peeking in the ground." "Chick . . ha, ha. ' "Three little dos rolling an the ground.'"

Among them was the oppor- tunity to get a close look at a snake (above right) and even touch it if you were brave enough. Kim Car- ter, 9, (left), found out that even lizards aren't such horrible mon- sters, but their foes can be scratchy when you try to hold them. Turtles, too, are interesting creatures, but John Pollak, B. (above, left) learned you have to be careful while /poking at them. Now that the children have had the op- portunity to learn about reptiles, the importance of conserving them has more meaning.
